save the bachelors

Chapter 4479 4481 [Vedas]

A few days later, Xiang Nan was handling official business in the military camp.

Just then, he heard a series of hurried footsteps, and then the door was pushed open with a bang, and Elizabeth rushed in.

"James, oh, James~ Your book is so well written, I love it so much, it's the best book I have ever read. You are a genius, a genius writer!" Elizabeth hugged Xiang Nan's neck and said excitedly.

"Elizabeth, Elizabeth, be reserved, be reserved~" At this time, Governor Weatherby also rushed over, "I'm sorry, James, it's all my fault that I spoiled her."

"It's okay, Governor. Elizabeth is the most distinguished guest here. She can go wherever she wants." Xiang Nan said lovingly.

"You'll spoil her like this. Girls should still act like girls." Weatherby waved his hand and smiled.

"I have always been a girl." Elizabeth said, then looked at Xiang Nan, "James, I still want to read your book, do you have any new ones?"

"Not yet. I won't create anything rashly before I get your approval." Xiang Nan waved his hand.

"James, you are too modest. In my opinion, your talent is even better than Shakespeare," said Elizabeth.

"I am really honored and humbled to hear your praise." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Okay, then I will continue to create.

However, please keep it a secret for me. I don't want my subordinates to know that I am writing novels in private. They will laugh at me and think that I lack manliness. "

"Don't worry, I will keep it a secret for you." Elizabeth nodded repeatedly, "And I never thought you lacked masculinity. In my eyes, I have never seen anyone more manly than you."

"Hmm~" Upon hearing this, Governor Weatherby couldn't help but cough lightly.

……

Later, Xiang Nan helped Elizabeth write "The Hobbit", "The Lord of the Rings", "The Chronicles of Narnia", "Alice in Wonderland", "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes" and so on.

Elizabeth was fascinated by every novel, and she became more and more appreciative and obsessed with Xiang Nan's talent.

Of course, this is a story.

In addition, due to Xiang Nan's outstanding performance in suppressing pirates, his position was promoted from naval captain to naval major, thus becoming a colonel-level officer and officially entering the ranks of middle-level officers.

……

Two months later, before the polar night arrived, Xiang Nan arrived at the western end of Gamvik Island in northern Norway.

Gamvik Island is an island located within the Arctic Circle. The island is covered with thick ice and snow. Looking up, it is all white. The earth is white, the mountains and rivers are white, and even the rivers are white.

Xiang Nan came to the west end of the island and read a book while waiting patiently.

He is now reading books that were brought out from the tomb of Alexander the Great.

These books were collected by Alexander the Great from Greece, Egypt, Persia, Central Asia and India. They can be said to be the essence of ancient knowledge of various civilizations.

There is no lack of mysterious, powerful, and lost knowledge among them.

For example, what he is reading now is the ancient Indian scripture "Vedas". Legend has it that the "Vedas" were left by the Indian creator god Brahma, and they cover knowledge in many aspects such as mythology, witchcraft, medicine, philosophy, music, and architecture.

The witchcraft recorded above is very strange. There are spells that can pray for victory, spells that can call the wind and rain, spells that can make men and women fall in love, and spells that can curse others to get sick...

These spells were primitive, strange, and extremely powerful, which shocked Xiang Nan deeply after reading them.

The more he looked, the more fascinated he became, completely forgetting the passage of time. At some point, the sea breeze began to whistle, snowflakes fluttered down, and the temperature quickly dropped to minus 40 to 50 degrees Celsius. It can be said that water turned to ice, and even a fire would be frozen.

Relying on his profound internal strength, Xiang Nan didn't care and continued reading his book.

Just then, he suddenly heard a crackling sound coming from under the ice.

Xiang Nan then became alert. He quickly put away the book, hid his body, and looked under the ice. He saw shadows under the several-meter-thick ice, as if something was moving.

He took a closer look and was immediately shocked.

I saw dozens of tall giants moving under the ice.

The shortest of them is seven or eight meters tall, and the tallest is about twenty meters tall. Standing there, they are taller than the building, which is really scary.

Their entire bodies were bluish-white, even their hair was white, and there was not a trace of heat on their bodies, as if they were carved out of ice.

They generally have a ferocious appearance, with thick, messy hair on their heads and spikey icicles all over their bodies. They look like primitive people, full of wildness and violence.

"Is this the Frost Giant? It's really terrifying." Xiang Nan couldn't help but sigh when he saw this.

Frost Giants are monsters in Norse mythology. Legend has it that they are descendants of Bergmir, the offspring of the giant Ymir, the creator god. They live in Jotunheim, which is full of rocks, cliffs, ice and snow.

The Frost Giants are extremely powerful and can summon ice and snow, so they are extremely strong. Even Odin, Thor and other Aesir are wary of them.

Legend has it that when Ragnarok arrives, the Frost Giants will be the first to attack. The entire earth will be covered with ice and snow, without sunlight or warmth, and people will suffer from unprecedented famine, killing each other for the remaining food and firewood.

Then the gods fought and all perished together. Only a few gods and humans escaped by chance and then reshaped the entire world.

This shows how powerful the Frost Giants are.

……

Xiang Nan saw the giants passing through the ice and walking up from the bottom of the sea.

Although the ice was several meters thick and could not be broken even with an icebreaker, these giants did not find it difficult at all.

It was not that they used brute force to break through the ice, but when they approached the ice, the ice automatically cracked open, opening a passage.

By the time they passed, the ice had closed again.

Xiang Nan noticed that during this process, the tallest giant walking at the front of the team was wearing a transparent wristband that looked like it was made of glass.

The wristband continuously emitted a bright light, and any ice that was illuminated by it would automatically crack.

"Is this the frost wristband?" Xiang Nan couldn't help but his eyes lit up.

After the giants arrived on the island, the tallest giant took off the wristband on his hand and placed it on a stone that looked like an altar.

Then they knelt on the ground, lowered their heads, and prayed devoutly.

Their prayers were unclear and Xiang Nan could not understand them at all. However, he noticed that when they were praying, a ray of moonlight shone on the wristband.

The wristband glowed with fluorescence, and after a while, it gradually changed from its original transparent colorless color to milky white...

Xiang Nan couldn't miss the opportunity, he immediately used the Great Shift of the Universe to grab the wristband. Then he used the Phantom Shift without hesitation and returned to Royal Port in an instant.
